"Impact" is a two-year high profile national management trainee programme for graduates with the potential to become senior managerial leaders in local government. As part of the Local Government Graduate Programme, it offers a fast-track route for passionate individuals who are eager to make a meaningful difference while advancing their careers.
This unique opportunity allows graduates to work directly with communities, influence policy at a strategic level, earn a competitive graduate salary, and gain a recognised leadership and management qualification.
We are looking for the next generation of leaders, those with the drive, resilience, and skills to tackle the most pressing challenges facing our communities and the public sector. From sustainability, homelessness, and unemployment to town centre regeneration, social care, and education, local councils are at the forefront of delivering real change.
All graduates will attend a structured induction programme and receive on-going support including the allocation of a consistent line manager, host managers for each of their placements and a mentor who will be a director from the Senior Management Team.
You will be working consistently with senior managers and directors across the council, on a range of key strategic and important operational projects.
